Week 8 done!

[Sammy777]

So that's week 8 done and dusted I have to say I didn't enjoy it at all. After 3 minutes I felt like my legs were dead and I struggled the whole 28 mins. I think I perhaps find it harder to run on the morning. Does anyone have a preference time of day? Is week 9 am lot harder?

Sometimes a run just sucks... that one did and you beat it... great running.

Next one after is generally speaking a lot smoother.

Week 9 is no harder than week 8, it’s only two minutes longer and you’ve put 84 minutes of running into you since you started week 8.

I prefer evening runs and find morning ones harder, I think it’s all in the mind though, I’m just not a morning person.

You'll find that some are just harder than others, maybe you're tired, not hydrated enough, have eaten too much cake (that's me) etc. then suddenly you hit a spell of runs that seem easy and feel great. You won't always know why. The feeling of satisfaction you get after a run is still good whether it's a good run or a hard one 🙂
